Bank Holiday weekend

We don't go away for long Bank Holiday weekends as the traffic is horrendous in both directions. Instead we nip out for a day here and there and this time we chose extremely well. We went to Milly-La-Forêt and Courances just 40 minutes south of Paris.

Milly is famous as the home of Jean Cocteau and he is buried in a little chapel (originally a lepers' chapel) just outside the town but this was closed for lunch when we visited...... This is the house he lived in for the last 17 years of his life.

We had lunch in Milly in a restaurant typically French in its treatment of foolish non-smokers. Never accept a table in a no-smoking area. It is invariably in the darkest , dankest recesses of the building next to the toilets.
Prefer to sit by the window and gamble on eating more quickly (a dead cert) than your French neighbours so you can pay up and leave before they light up after their first course. Where do you think non-smokers were placed in our little restaurant?
